Family Grace
|
|
Saying grace at mealtime is a
special part of the day for many families. Whether they hold hands
around the table, stand behind their chairs, or individually bow their
heads and recite a psalm together, each family feels a special meaning
for the Thanksgiving grace. Here are some special prayers that your
family might like to share. |

Thank you for the world so sweet,
Thank you for the food we eat.
Thank you for the birds that sing,
Thank you, God, for everything.
Amen |
Bess us oh Lord, and these, Thy gifts,
Which we are about to receive.
From They bounty,
Through Christ, our Lord.
Amen |

Bless this food for the nourishment of our bodies,
For the sake of Thy Son, Lord Jesus Christ.

Nothing more.
Nothing less.
Nothing else.

Our Father in Heaven,
We give thanks for the pleasure
of gathering together for this occasion.
We give thanks for this food
prepared by loving hands.
We give thanks for life, the freedom
to enjoy it all and all other blessings.
As we partake of this food,
We pray for health and strength to carry on
and try to live as You would have us.
This we ask in the name of Christ
Our Heavenly Father.
